Cameron will, if elected, have to pay for this support with a regulatory framework more favourable to the ambitions of News Corp.

True, the Sun’s readership is down (along with every other newspaper) as the Internet becomes more influential.

However, try typing ‘Gordon Brown’ or “New Labour’ into Youtube, Facebook, Twitter or Google more generally and you’ll find a set of results that makes the Sun’s coverage look toadying. Even the top blog for lefties – Labourlist – dominated by bile from fed-up New Labour supporters like me.

Still at least this strategy of dismissing the Sun’s point of view is consistent New Labour : Don’t ever bother to question whether it’s the policies or leadership at fault, simply rubbish and smear the messenger.

Unfortunately it is not so much who ‘reads’ the paper, but whoever remembers the headline. After all, I don’t think everyone who comes across the Sun on a daily basis necessarily reads the paper. I’m sure they just respond to the headline they see.

It is worrying because James Murdoch is laying out his agenda to woo the Tories into ‘reforming’ the BBC and the license fee. Clearly the Tories have promised something to News Internaional in return for an early (8 months early!) endorsement of Cameron and the Conservatives.

The next few months will see increasingly negative headlines regarding not just Brown (who has very much been the fool for the Sun), but in fact the whole of the Labour Party.

No one is safe from the Sun’s headlines.

It’s only the inflated vanity of journalists that lead them to believe they can influence peoples’ votes (check out the pomposity of today’s Sun). And the media is drivelling on about this because, hey, it’s about them & their little village.
